The Lions were literally signing guys off the street on Thursday, and throwing them onto the field on Sunday. That they did as well as they did is a testament to Tim Walton, new defensive coordinator for the Rams.

No wonder Coach Ware is worried.

Gotta gwt better on the backend a I am skeptical if we have the pieces to so that. Hope so but hoping and wishing, you know what they say. My hands are already full.

But a genius like you concludes the problem was with their talent and not their injuries. Do you just use your brain to fill space in your head or is it an actual functioning brain? I’m just curious….

Guys like Ronnie Lott and Tory Holt were awesome but they ended up with some pretty gruesome injuries from playing through ones that could have been fixed with surgery if they had come out of the game.

Wed, 08 May 2013 14:11:26 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=2087174#comment-2518646He didn’t say anything about not playing through pain. He said that he wants the players to speak up about injuries. Why put a twist on everything reported around here???
